A warm rain comes in from the ocean to the east and falls upon the castle erected high above the cliffs of the eastern shore. Child prince Iacubos sits outside in the rain, as birds take refuge through the open door inside his room.  He loves the birds and how they sing and he loves their company as well. He loves the rain he loves how it shrouds him with noise and with water making him feel safe. He is sad but he is at his happiest, so he just sits and watches the lighting storm far out at sea.
and just as the red of his tears is about to fade and his smile is about to appear Jessriel his mother catches and finds him.

"Iacubos what are you doing out in the rain again?" Scaring off the birds causing them to fly out past the prince's head. Jessriel's voice is always calm when talking to him but he can tell she is angry.
Iacubos is startled his mother never came to look for him in his room before because he never used to hide here.
"Mother is to smart to think I'm just hiding in my room" he once thought.
"Iacubos? do you realize its been all day since anyone has seen you? I asked Evro and he says you didn't come to train." guilt is easily grown if planted by his mother. He turns to nudge his forehead against her leg , quickly as to hide he has been crying.
   "I'm sorry mother, I forgot."
"Iacubos -"  She sighs  and sits next to him and holding her little boy close .
     "I love you mother. please don't be mad."  nudging his head into her shoulder.
"I'm not mad Iacubos. Just don't forget to come out of your little cave tomorrow."
     "Yes mother."  For a while she stays with him in the rain, as if she forgot there was any.
Listening to the thunder and the birds
"Now come on now, inside Iacubos. and get dry. "  Leading him in by the arm into his bedroom she shrouds him in a blanket instead of the rain.
   " I love you mum"
"I love you to my boy." she says as she hugs him and holds his head close. "I know you love me sapling. why is it you always tell me so"
  "You are the only one of them I can tell"
And before she could respond he had a sudden thought.
      "Mommy! Can I keep the door open so my friends can come back in? You scared them off when you came in my room." Looking up with wide eyes as he tugs at her sleeve "I promise i will clean up any mess they make."
Delighted to see him with ambition she says "Oh alright Iacubos but you need to talk to real people tomorrow my son birds don't speak back you know"
    " But mother one of the birds talks back! and she wears purple and teaches me riddles and tells me stories." Proud and happy he looks at his mother knowing how proud she is when he practices and learns his power he says  "She also when she doesn't walk around perches herself on my shoulder and I let her make music with me as she sings."

Jessriel's heart was suddenly filled with fear, but she hides it behind a smile.
:3 i know it's not the best writing but the more i put my imaginations down in different ways the more concrete they are and feel.
